Newcastle Uni Open Day

Went with Jacob to look around on the Open Day. Over two days they were expecting between 4-5000 visitors. It was very busy when we arrived about11:00 and we saw the racing pigeons on the way in which we both liked to see. Plenty of black and white in evidence as you would expect. The building works are mainly completed and it is a much smarter environment than last visit a year ago when everything was in progress. We liked the facilities and the closeness to the City. Accommodation looked good and reasonably priced: show flats were newly painted! Came across the IT fix company in the student union and passed that on as it looked a good concept. Well worth a visit - great courses, great facilities, great social life and reasonable prices. It's good enough Princess Beatrice apparently (mentioned twice by students who took us on tours so they think that is important for visitors to know)
